LMAO If you go to the forums and type in booty grab it will take you to the threads for it. What you do is look at every ones signature. If it says booty grab play you click it. It an EASY way to get gold fast.

Aquariums in signature: If you've got room for it, by all means. smile Just be sure to try to keep your character's avatar in your siggy somewhere, have fun. (I'm all about more gold!)
And here's an article that I just came across that I thought I'd share:
Take Note: Doodling Can Help Memory
By HealthDay - Fri Feb 27, 8:48 PM PST
- FRIDAY, Feb. 27 (HealthDay News) -- You might look like you're not paying attention when you doodle, but science says otherwise.
Researchers in the United Kingdom found that test subjects who doodled while listening to a recorded message had a 29 percent better recall of the message's details than those who didn't doodle. The findings were published in Applied Cognitive Psychology.
"If someone is doing a boring task, like listening to a dull telephone conversation, they may start to daydream," study researcher Professor Jackie Andrade, of the School of Psychology at the University of Plymouth, said in a news release issued by the journal's publisher. "Daydreaming distracts them from the task, resulting in poorer performance. A simple task, like doodling, may be sufficient to stop daydreaming without affecting performance on the main task."
For the experiment, a two-and-a-half minute listing of several people's names and places was played for test subjects, who were charged with writing down only the names of the people said to be attending a party. During the recording, half the participants were asked to simultaneously shade in shapes on a piece of paper without attention to neatness. Participants were not told they were taking part in a memory test.
When the recording ended, all were asked for the eight names of those attending the party as well as eight place names mentioned in the audio. Those asked to doodle wrote down, on average, 7.5 names and places, while those who didn't doodle listed only 5.8.
"In psychology, tests of memory or attention will often use a second task to selectively block a particular mental process," Andrade said. "If that process is important for the main cognitive task, then performance will be impaired. My research shows that beneficial effects of secondary tasks, such as doodling, on concentration may offset the effects of selective blockade."
In everyday life, Andrade said, doodling "may be something we do because it helps to keep us on track with a boring task, rather than being an unnecessary distraction that we should try to resist doing."

I have so got to show that article to my teachers. I get in trouble all the time for doodling. And its annoying. Cause my grades actually dropped when I stopped doodling. but my teachers don't believe me! Well, one grade dropped. Which suck! Anyhow, I used to doodle all the time. In chem, my papers were covered with it. And if you showed me one, i could tell you nearly word for word what we were talking about. When i stopped, i could remember some fasts, but not nearly as much. its annoying when teachers try to force certain study habits on students. I mean, I have habits that have worked for me for years. I do great in all my classes, was top of my class in NY. And suddenly, my teachers are telling metaht I'm doing everything wrong and I need to chagne how I do thigns. Which is anoying. Cause I change and my grades drop> people learn in diff ways, so let them be diff.
D*** the Man! Save the Empire!
((1k to whoever can give me the movie thats from. 1500 if you can give me who says it.))

Empire Records is awesome. But I like Breakfast Club better. And there is sort of a plot. I mean, the whole money thing with Lucas adn Rex Manning day and... well, there is stuff.
I thought we established we were all crazy.

I'm not crazy.
The rest of my personalities, however, are down right certifiable.
